Albany's best dive bar. come for the pinball, stay for the food, always a fun
group sharing good cheer
Dive bar with a friendly crowd and friendly staff and good mix of tap beers from New York State. They also have hot, simple but filling pub food highlights from around the state; Order food at the bar and they’ll bring it to you. (Only three tables)
Great place. Great wings. Must go! Go see Jordan. Such a great guy. You will enjoy
